BBC commentary, more specifically Ben Edwards......

[Miss Arsenal]

I can't tell whether it's the Mercedes' being off the pace, LH saving tires or his tires have already gone off.



EDIT: Appears he has a slow puncture but can't hear the team because of his radio problems

Hope Vettle doesn't do his usual trick of speeding of the lights and leading every lap.

Would be good to see Di Resta get some good points at his home race.

Home race? He's British. Yes, I know he's got italian parents.

He classes them both as home races apparently.

I really hope he gets Massa's seat next season.

I'll keep my seat ty

It's all Vettel's fault. Smug little shit, put him in Alonso's Ferrari and he would be half the driver he is.

The WDC is OVER.

I hate Vettle but you cant blame the guy. Ferrari did it with Schumacher for years.

Bring back refueling.

Quite agree.

No he wouldn't. face it, Vettel is the best driver on the grid, he's going to win his 4th straight title and deservingly so.

If you want to talk about overrated drivers, how about one L. Hamilton?

[Reverend Gooner]

He is the best driver I agree but he has not shown himself to be a great racer yet. He has had his moments fighting through the grid but no more than anyone else and always with the best car. His reputation will not match his success until he either wins the championship in a notably inferior car or beats someone like Alonso as a team mate. I do think he is not given as much credit as he deserves despite what I just said.

Hamilton is not over rated, I do not know anyone who thinks he is the best driver on the grid or even second best, most people consider him a highly talented but flawed driver which he is.

[CynicalGooner]

Alonso and Hamilton are both comfortably better drivers than Vettel. Put them all in the same car and they'll beat him more often than not. Even Mark Webber who is let's face it, a very average driver by F1 standards, does well in the Red Bull.

Did you see the race in Abu Dhabi last year? Last to 3rd, and there was Belgium last year too. The McLaren was the best car for the majority of last season, yet Vettel beat them.

And i'm not even a Vettel fan, i just think he deserves some credit.

Next year will be a bigger test for Vettel, he's facing Ricciardo who is lightning fast over a single lap.

[Reverend Gooner]

This is the first grand prix in years I have been able to watch but have not. Yawnfest.
